title: [Practical experiences with wheelchair sports of paraplegic patients].
abstract: The group of wheelchair sportsmen presented see their field of activity not only in terms of practising sports with its manifold positive effects but also in terms of providing information and care for hospitalized paraplegic patients and/or recently discharged rehabilitees. The article is based on the answers to a questionnaire developed by the sports medical counselling office in Zwickau. Severely disabled persons, too, take pleasure in their improved fitness and performance.
